Edu researcher + microeconomist. Once a teacher (via @TeachForAU) now Program Director @EdResearchAU with @D_AccessEcon, @EduPolicyInst & @B_I_Team in between
Joined August 2016
Some fantastic research from @E61Institute on teacher recruitment and retention out today. First time (to my knowledge) anyone has used administrative data to answer key questions about the teacher workforce nationally.
🚨🚨🚨Today @SilviaGriseld and Jack Buckley release new research on the state of teacher workforce, with a particular focus on attrition. 🌟The main message? 🌟Teacher attrition isn’t rising — in fact, it’s now the lowest of any occupation in Australia. But challenges remain.

Fascinating read. I agree with it all but unfortunately can't see much of a chance of this shift happening while so many political parties take economic growth as a given (or even see it as a thing to be wary of).
Slides for my keynote speech at the Florence EUI conference "Future of Regulation and Competitiveness in Europe – Making the Draghi Report Actionable". Some stuff familiar to SiliconContinent readers, with new diagnosis and proposals. More to come soon!.

Looking to expand our amazing team at @EdResearchAU! If you have a keen eye for critically appraising research (especially in making judgements on how much weight to place on causal claims) and using it to inform policy, this role may be of interest.

Half-way through and really enjoying this one despite not knowing a thing about soccer! And a unique pleasure to see @EconTalker (who I've listened to since 2007) interview someone who I've been reading & following for some time too (since 7 myths came out at least).
Can you have too much certainty? Says writer and pedagogical innovator @daisychristo: Yes—well, sometimes. Hear her analyze both the benefits and drawbacks of technology-driven decision-making in areas from football to education. Explore w @econtalker:

A great result! Congratulations to my friend @PaulKohlerSW19 and the excellent campaign team that has worked so hard in the seat for years to make this win possible.
Lib Dem's enjoyed a surprisingly easy race in Wimbledon tonight, with a resounding win for Paul Kohler. #LondonersVote2024 .

Congrats to the heritage enthusiasts among us in the ACT.
Four community early education and care centres at the Australian National University have been told their licences will end in six months because the heritage-listed buildings are too difficult to maintain. #education .
